The Green Party has complained about this cartoon of Zack Polanski by the The Times. They’re deeply unhappy with it. Whatever you do, do not repost!

Socialist: "Nordic countries prove socialism works." Economist: "They rank higher on economic freedom than the US." Socialist: "But they have universal healthcare." Economist: "Funded by 25% VAT taxes on the poor and 180% car taxes." Socialist: "They're more equal." Economist: "Sweden has more billionaires per capita than America." Socialist: "That's not real socialism." Economist: "Correct. Real socialism is Venezuela, where toilet paper costs $100." Socialist: "That's different." Economist: "Is it."

A decade later, the team in 3rd may be relegated to the championship; the team in 1st may be relegated from the Championship; and Arsenal will still be second.

Britain used to be led by men like this. • Sent to stop an assembling invasion force • Face impossible odds • Invent new battle doctrine on the spot • Lead from the front (suicide) • Win decisively! • Capture ALL enemy ships • Unexpectedly achieve total naval supremacy • Unexpectedly achieve global hegemony that lasts for 200 years. • Bleed out onboard your shattered flagship HMS Victory No other man has ever experienced such an afternoon.

@tomhfh Yes but if we had our own version of NASA we’d have to do a £100m environmental impact statement on each launch to make sure we don’t destroy the habitat of a hedgehog

Today, NASA launches a rocket to the moon. NASA has an annual budget of $24.4bn. That’s equivalent to the £18bn we increased welfare spending by this year.

The Laffer Curve is once again proved right. High taxes on spirits are causing sales to fall, and thus a hole in government's balance books. Cut taxes, and trade thrives - along with all of its benefits.

The latest spirits revenue data has been published by @HMRCgovuk Spirits revenue down by over £100m year on year as a result of the 17% duty increase over last three years - and on course to be £1.1bn lower than forecast when the new duty system - weighted against spirits- was introduced in 2023 The trend is clear - the tax burden on #ScotchWhisky must fall to raise revenue and boost growth

@Kevin_Maguire Realistically, very few people are going to end up re-domiciled here because they’ll either go back or go elsewhere whilst the conflict settles down, it’s going to be a very small minority of a minority that have returned that this happens to >500 I would bet… non story

@narindertweets This is quite obviously being worn on a rugby podcast that focuses mostly on English rugby following the English rugby team losing two embarrassing games… The fact you don’t know this is frankly embarrassing, or is it you just trying to stir hatred Not a good look Narinder

Princess Anne’s son-in-law, Mike Tindall, wearing a ‘Make England Great Again' cap. People excusing this as "rugby" connected. I did NOT look at that and think "rugby" , I thought MAGA. This isn't a good look coming from the Royal Family- pretty low.

@lukejcr Energy price cap reduced by taking levies off and adding them to general tax, factor this in and they’d have gone up. FACT Inflation is 50% higher than 18 months ago. FACT Interest rates have been cut because Labour has caused the economy to stagnate. FACT

Energy Price Cap down. FACT. Inflation down. FACT. Interest rates down. FACT. The “Britain’s broken” crowd wrong. The doom-mongers fuming. The grifters scrambling for a new script. More to do? Of course. But Labour’s fixing Britain.🌹

@Zilch0284 7 or so years ago Gavin Hastings was on a podcast and asked if Adam had the choice, what he should do Gavin proclaimed “take the fucking money son, play for England” or something to that respect It’s not verbatim but those that have the opportunity definitely know!

It is June 1983, you have just been elected to Parliament and appointed a Minister in the MOD. Your staff provide you with an induction briefing pack, including a section on Counter Terrorism. This is the actual brief Ministers had on the role of the SAS & SBS in CT operations.
